ELIZABETH AND MARY

ROBIN SIMON

ONLY one of these royal cousins (and rivals) could survive, and Elizabeth did, just as she did when her sister, Mary I, threatened her life. The other Mary, the Queen of Scots, was finally sent to the scaffold. This extraordinary exhibition tells a tale of intrigue, deceit, decency, double-dealing, doubt and decision.

■ ELIZABETH and Mary: Royal Cousins, Rival Queens is at the British Library in London until February 20, 2022 (bl.uk).

It’s Friday!
